My Kit arrived and I opened the box to find a pile full of protective colorful paper packaging! There was a great card of Van Gogh from Minerva too right on top!

Under this layer of packaging were individually wrapped items! All tied up with string!
And here is the awesomeness inside!

From Top Left: the Verity Hat pattern by Ysolda Teague, the book Knitting Without Tears by EZ (!!!), a set of Exploding Frog Soaps, a very sparkly, shimmery, red star ornament, a really great fold out knitting needle holder (under star, pink/orange stripes), a really yummy and exquisite example of the Verity hat made by Minerva, a sken of some gorgeous sock yarn by Paca-Peds (alpaca/superwash wool/nylon) in the colorway Fireside (such great colors, exactly what I LURV!!!), a set of the CUTEST mushroom stitch markers and their own mini stitch marker bag, and then a bunch of great teas! They will definitely be used up at work!
Here are some close ups of the froggies and the mushrooms!!!
